How sheep Benefit La I'd;

There is no stock 50 beneficial to land a.
sheep, and for cleaning and fertiliziug
purposes alone it will pay TO keep a small
flock of sheep. In speaking Of sheep re-
storing the fertility OF land the secretary o.
the Massachusetts, State Board of AgricuI
ture, says:
"The problem hardest for the New Eng
land farmer to solve is how to keep up the
fertility of pastures. Where COWS are kept
on lands rough with stone and not de-
scribed by the term arabic, there iJ con-
slant deterioration; weeds aud bashss

goes TO the institutes with the unanswered
question: How shall We keep up our pas.

Sheep will restore the worst OF these
WORKOUT ranges to better than its original
fertility the stones will remain, OF course;
but if bushes are cut, sheep will prevent
their growth, briars and blackberry
bushes, II moved, will disappear from the
soil, togsther with all varieties of noxious
weeds. Nutritious grasses Will take their
places, and the farmer will soon realize
the truth of the Spanish saying that 1.-The
sheep mas a golden hoof." But the old
pasture must be shsep-tight, becquse they
do not enjoy the pri7ation incident to
ronovating old pastures, and will naturally
seek fresher and more agreeable ranges. II

We like to see farmer who is al
ways ready and willing to accept a
new fact, no matter what the source
from which it comes. Such q man is
not going to stagnate or be left behind
when the car ofprogress comes along.
An acquaintance Of ours, a live 60
ahead farmer, and a successful mar
ket man, once told US that in going
through the market place, whenever
he saw any vegetables or fruits on a
stand superior in any respect to his
own, he stopped with the producer.
no matter if he was as black as the
ace of spades, and inquired all about
his way of culture, and by following
up this habit of inquiry and acting
upon the information SO derived, he
was continually getting some new
light and profit. Walter Scott used
to say, in speaking about the acquire
ments of useful information, that be
could gain somthing of value from
intercourse with every condition of
life, no matter how lowly.

The boycott of the house Of Good
bar, Love g. Co., has been removed
by the Alliance Of Montgomery coun-
ty. The senior member of the firm,
Mr.. A. b. Goodbar, went down to
Winona, and explained to the satis-
faction of the Alliance, that the let
ter from his house to Holman & Co.,
of Winona. (refuslng to sell them
goods was written by salesman of
the house, and not by any member
of the house, and that it was written
without the knowledge or consent of
the firm. He also brought with him
letter from the salesman in 1ues-
ton, in which was set forth the above
facts, and furthermore the fact that
Holman 4 Co., and the Alliance,
had entirely misconstrued the pur-
port of the original letter. In view
of all these circumstances, the Ali
ance decided to remove the boycott.
We are glad they have done SO, for
we do not approve of such extreme
measures, except in extreme cases.
